First you should know about CSRF Protection. CSRF which stands for cross-site request forgeries is easy way to protect your websites.

Here i am giving you a simple scenario, When you start your application then Laravel generate a token for active user and by using this token it verify actual user and then after verify it allow you to send request to application.

So everytime when you are going to send any request by using HTML Form then you must include CSRF Token field to validate the request in middleware.

When you using Laravel Blade Form then you don't have need to include CSRF token.
